Love Island’s Jack and Dani SPLIT: Who’s still together and who’s broken up?

Love Island winners Dani Dyer and Jack Fincham have split... for a second time.

The reality TV couple moved in together soon after they won the 2018 series and even adopted a dog before last month confirming they were no longer living together.

Despite Dyer insisting they are “stronger than ever," Fincham this week announced they are “not in a relationship anymore” because “sometimes things aren't meant to be”.

His statement read: “There is no easy way to say this and it isn't going to be an easy time but me an Dani are not in a relationship anymore.

"We will always care a lot for each other and have love for each other and I mean that from the bottom of my heart and I wish her nothing but happiness.

"We have some amazing memories together and have been through a lot but sometimes things aren't meant to be and we really did try to make it work but it unfortunately didn't and that is life.

"That's all I have to say, a break up is hard enough as it is for both of us let alone in the public eye so I hope everyone is considerate and understands this. X."

With Dyer and Fincham no more, who else has suffered the same fate?

Wes Nelson and Megan Barton Hanson

Wes Nelson and Megan Barton Hanson surprised viewers with their shock villa romance which saw Nelson dump Laura Anderson, and Barton Hanson wave goodbye to Eyal Booker (and Alex Miller).

They appeared to get over their tumultuous start, with the pair constantly gushing over their relationship on social media. But Nelson's Dancing On Ice stint spelt the end for the young couple with Barton Hanson accusing show bosses of sabotaging their romance by pairing him with the "hottest dancer," Vanessa Bauer. The couple then announced their split in a statement parodying Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin's 'consciously uncoupling' statement. Barton Hanson accused Nelson of not doing enough to fight for their relaitonship and later admitted she would rather 's*** in her hands and clap' that reconcile with the 20-year-old.

Fans had little hope for Zara McDermott and Adam Collard after Collard outraged the nation by jumping ship from Kendall Rae-Knight to Rosie Williams to new interest McDermott with a brief dalliance with Darylle Sargeant in between.

But he appeared to change his lothario ways by dating McDermott on leaving the villa and even had her initial tattooed on his hand. Fast forward eight months and the pair have split and Collard has tweaked the inking.

And Josh Denzel made himself public enemy number two (after Adam Collard) when he pied off Georgia Steel in pursuit of Kaz Crossley, who from the get-go blew his mind.

Their decision to live separately in a bid to not rush their relationship appeared to have paid off as other couples fell around them, but they dropped their split bombshell on fans in February, telling fans: "Sometimes things don't go as planned."

Sam Bird and Georgia Steel were a mystery to viewers from the beginning, with their romance being put to the ultimate test when they were given the option to recouple in the house or leave together.

After eventually opting for the latter, Steel and Bird appeared to go all-in, moving in together within weeks of their villa exit. But things soon turned sour after the couple were forced to reveal they had split, leaving everyone’s favourite loyal babe Steel plagued with cheating allegations, - something she vehemently denied.

The romance has since fizzled out with Steel joining Celebs Go Dating to find a man.

Laura Anderson and Paul Knops

Anderson and Knops appeared to be the most real couple after finishing third, with neither wanting to rush into moving in or force the process. Both frequently told how they wanted to see if they could date in the real-world and refused to label themselves “official”.

But after spending a month apart they failed to make the relationship work.

Anderson later hinted she may have embarked on a new romance with former Love Island winner Max Morley.

Sadly, Mighty and Foster were the first couple to split amid cheating allegations on leaving the villa.

Despite Mighty putting it all on the line for love and quitting the show in a bid to be with Foster, the couple were plagued with split rumours soon after, with Foster being accused of cheating and not being “bothered” about her.

Charlie Brake and Ellie Brown

Brake and Brown’s relationship proved problematic from the moment they met with Brown accused of only being interested in the socialite’s money and lifestyle.

Following their exit, the couple shared a number of cosy snaps enjoying various luxurious getaways together.

But things soon fizzled out as Brake announced they had decided to “part ways” with a blunt statement in September.

Crane’s time in the Love Island villa was short-lived after she entered weeks after the originals. But she managed to find romance with Fowler and raise a plastic baby with him.

They were dumped days before the final and eventually called it quits after two months of dating. They cited “busy schedules and not having the time to spend together”.
